Annual Appeal

Our OLLI Annual Appeal continues and there’s still time for you to contribute and help us reach our goal… or better yet… let’s see if we as a community can top our goal! Every donation gets us closer and ensures OLLI will be around for many years to come. To make an easy donation online, click here.

Do you have a Marketing or Sales background?  OLLI is looking for a fresh set of eyes and we want to tap into your “toolbox” of best practices. It is time to tell our story and welcome new members that may not be aware of all the opportunities OLLI membership offers. Please email Beth Leconte, OLLI Executive Director, at bleconte@uri.edu or call her direct line at 401-874-2405.
